Celsius WG Herbicide
Celsius WG Herbicide
Celsius WG Herbicide is a post-emergent herbicide that comes in the form of wettable granules. Delivers excellent performance on warm-season grasses and removes up to 120 species of annual and broadleaf perennial weeds and grasses.
Celsius WG Herbicide, manufactured by Bayer, is a professional quality herbicide designed for the post-emergent control on warm-season grasses like St. Augustine and has some residual activity to prevent certain weeds from germinating.
This easy to use herbicide comes in the form of water-dispersible granules that must be thoroughly and uniformly mixed in water and applied as a spray. Each pack covers up to 2,000 sq. ft. at the highest rate of application while also delivering lower phytotoxicity in areas with high temperatures.
Celsius WG Herbicide provides broad-spectrum control of grassy weeds like crabgrass with up to 3 active ingredients helping to cease weed growth within hours of application.
Tools Needed
To use Celsius WG Herbicide, you will need to mix the product in a backpack sprayer or hand-can.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Celsius WG Herbicide to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For acreage, take the square footage and divide it by one acre (square footage / 43,560 sq. ft. = acres). For spot treatments, mix 0.057 to 0.113 oz. (1.6-3.2 g) of Celsius WG Herbicide per gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Do not apply more than a total of 7.4 oz (210 g) of product per acre (0.17 oz or 4.8 g of product per 1,000 sq. ft.) per year (365 days).
- Step 2: Fill your sprayer tank with half the amount of water, then add the appropriate amount of Celsius WG Herbicide, then fill the tank the rest of the way with remaining half of water. Shake up the sprayer tank until the solution is well-mixed.
- Step 3: Spray the target weed with the Celsius WG Herbicide mixture, making sure to get even coverage via fan spray setting. Check back after 2 to 4 weeks and if weeds are still present then perform a second application. Do not mow immediately after treating with this product or before spray has dried. After treatment, do not transfer clippings to non-target areas. For best results, do not irrigate until spray has dried.
Where to Use
Use Celsius WG Herbicide on warm-season turf on residential and commercial lawns or commercial properties such as sod farms, sports fields, parks, campsites, recreational areas, roadsides, school grounds, cemeteries, and golf courses (minus golf course greens and collars).
Do not use this product on bahiagrass or cool-season turf types, including tall fescue, fine fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, or creeping bentgrass.
When to Use
Spray Celsius WG Herbicide when turf is established or 4 weeks have passed for newly established turfgrasses. Weed control is more rapid when soil temperatures are above 65 degrees, when soil moisture is adequate for weed growth, and when weeds are not under environmental stress (e.g. drought).
Safety Information
Celsius WG Herbicide is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing and applying this product.
Do not allow people or pets to enter the treated areas until sprays have dried.
Special Considerations
It is advised not to use a surfactant during spot treatment on St. Augustine grasses because of the risk of damage it can cause to the turf.

Q:Will this work on carpet grass (arthracon hispidus)? And will it kill everything, or just targeted weeds. I am trying to regain parts of my hay field that is being taken over by the carpet grass.8/8/22A:Celsius WG Herbicide will eliminate carpetgrass and does offer a selective form of control, meaning it will only eliminate labeled weeds. However, it does state on the product label "The directions for use of this product are believed to be adequate and must be followed carefully. However, it is impossible to eliminate all risks associated with the use of this product. Turf injury, ineffectiveness or other unintended consequences may result because of such factors as weather conditions, presence of other materials, or the manner of use or application."

However, tolerance testing should be done prior to use. Some temporary discoloration of certain warm-season grasses may occur when this product is mixed with other herbicides."

Q:What is the difference between Celsius WG & Celsius Fahrenheit? Why is WG twice as expensive per ounce?7/14/22A:Never heard of a herbicide called Celsius Fahrenheit. It's probably a knockoff. Personally, I would buy the WG.

Q:I applied 1 ounce per gallon instead of .1 ounce to my bermuda lawn. Will that damage the bermuda sod?7/7/22A:If you are referring to Celsius WG Herbicide, the maximum application rate is 0.17 oz. or 4.8 g of product per 1,000 sq. ft. per year so there could be risk to turf, ineffectiveness or other unintended consequences.
